DH just brought one home from the co-op...apparently the staff there and several little old ladies told him it was lovely grin

dexter73 Wed 23-Jan-13 15:20:02

It's ok - I prefer fruit and nut.

YABU!?!?

Ullena Wed 23-Jan-13 15:24:48

It's sort of white chocolate in the middle...no wait, that's vanilla flavour filling, apparently. Took me ages to figure out how to open it!

happynewmind Wed 23-Jan-13 15:26:36

dd has had one from co op, I dont know what it was like as dd didnt share sad

PandaOnAPushBike Wed 23-Jan-13 15:27:54

I got huge one for Christmas and scoffed the lot in one sitting. It has panda approval.

fuzzywuzzy Wed 23-Jan-13 15:28:53

I will never know as it's not suitable for vegetarians sad

HecateWhoopass Wed 23-Jan-13 15:29:17

No. I am very reluctant to try new chocolate since PeanutbutterKitkatGate.

<retches>

Ullena Wed 23-Jan-13 15:29:53

Hmm...too much vanilla. Rather cloying. But a nice surprise and I will eat it anyway on a cold day!

fuzzywuzzy Wed 23-Jan-13 15:30:27

Peanut butter has no business in a chocolate bar, Hec you should know better than that.

They are fabulous and yummy. Nothing else to say really!

chubbychipmonk Wed 23-Jan-13 15:31:12

It's yum!

Ullena Wed 23-Jan-13 15:32:17

Why would chocolate not be vegetarian? I get it not being vegan, dairy etc.

shock

It's got horse in it, hasn't it?

It's nowhere near as amazing as it should have been - I was really excited by it but actually it was disappointing.

As said upthread, it's the vanilla stuffing, and with the sweetness of the chocolate it's just far too sweet and cloying. If they'd have put the biscuit in it would have made it more edible.

HecateWhoopass Wed 23-Jan-13 15:33:45

It was this bunch of bastards, fuzzy. They tricked me by claiming it was the most delicious treat ever.

I bet they installed hidden cameras in my house so they could capture my face when I bit into the foul thing.

The one and only time in nearly 40 years on the planet that chocolate has gone in the bin.

And this from the woman who found 2 choc decs still clinging to the tree this year after it had been in the loft all year - and ate them.

Oh yes.

grin at Ullena.

I've not seen the ingredients, but I'm guessing gelatine.

<rains on the parade>

Ullena Wed 23-Jan-13 15:34:51

DH is making whinnying noises...aibu to sell him to Tescos? grin

Ullena Wed 23-Jan-13 15:36:32

What about reeses peanut butter cups? They do the chocolate/peanut butter combo rather well, imo...

HecateWhoopass Wed 23-Jan-13 15:41:19

Never had one and nobody is going to convince me to have another go at a choc/peanut abomination ever again. grin

fuzzywuzzy Wed 23-Jan-13 16:03:15

It doesn't say gelatine in the ingredient list. So my guess is it has animal rennet in the whey powder ingredient.

It specifically says 'not suitable for vegetarians' sad

Hec, you are so easily lead. But I suppose chocolate was involved. Did your kids not like it?

diddl Wed 23-Jan-13 16:32:19

It does have biscuit pieces in, doesn´t it?

Ullena Wed 23-Jan-13 16:51:22

Yes it does.

IslaValargeone Wed 23-Jan-13 16:59:43

I got one yesterday, for anyone who hasn't tried it don't bother,it's shite.

propertyNIGHTmareBEFOREXMAS Wed 23-Jan-13 18:10:05

I am utterly affronted that it is not suitable for vegetarians. Those Cadbury bastards. I was well up for trying this angry

propertyNIGHTmareBEFOREXMAS Wed 23-Jan-13 18:10:43

Thanks, Isla. That cheers me up somewhat.

usualsuspect Wed 23-Jan-13 18:12:34

They are lovely and only a quid in the CO OP.

fuzzy: I'm shocked by that! Cadbury's has always been one of my saviours due to it being veggie without fail! So glad I never bought one of these in the end because I wouldn't have checked due to it being cadbury's!

LynetteScavo Wed 23-Jan-13 18:16:07

I am eating one right now. (It was only £1 in the co-op)

It is indeed very nice. It may be one of the few good things which comes out of Kraft buying Cadbury's.

LynetteScavo Wed 23-Jan-13 18:17:20

Eeew, Iv'e gone off it now it's not for vegetarians, and I'm not vegetarian. hmm

fuzzywuzzy Wed 23-Jan-13 18:18:38

Confused, since the mars fiasco I always check for the 'V', thank goodness I did.

TheCrackFox Wed 23-Jan-13 18:19:33

I find Oreos utterly stomach churning and I bloody love buiscits. I'll give this new combo a miss.

diddl Wed 23-Jan-13 18:21:18

My daughter had one at the weekend.

I thought it was OK, although too sweet for me.

Under the Milka brand here, though.

MikeFlowersPops Wed 23-Jan-13 18:21:46

I thought it was too sickly

makemineamalibuandpineapple Wed 23-Jan-13 18:54:11

Peanut butter kit kat chunky's are amazing!! I can't stop eating them grin

Lafaminute Wed 23-Jan-13 18:56:03

Peanut butter and choclate are a marriage made in heaven!!!!

Had it, thought it was nothing special. However, I have developed an Oreo addiction this week. 50p a pack in Sainsburys...

MrsKeithRichards Wed 23-Jan-13 19:00:20

It's deliciousness!

Coconutty Wed 23-Jan-13 19:03:36

I ate the whole family size bar without realising it while watching TV, but didn't like it much. Very sickly.

HecateWhoopass Wed 23-Jan-13 19:04:00

They can't have it, fuzzy, they have to have a gluten free diet

ProPerformer Wed 23-Jan-13 19:05:33

See I LOVED it!! :D orgasmicly yummy!
